Notre Dame in China: Hong Kong

University of Notre Dame provost Thomas G. Burish led a University delegation to China this week, on the eve of the 19th Communist Party Congress where uncertainty about Hong Kong's future was the unspoken background in discussions about academic freedom and other issues that arose in meetings the provost had with academics and others in the former British colony. Dr. Burish was questioned about it more directly in an interview with Hong Kong's leading newspaper, the South China Morning News.
